Spring on clutch cable?
Northy - 17/7/04 at 04:38 PM

What spring have people used on the clutch cable with their pedal box? I can't find a suitable one. Has anyone got one, or can tell me where to get one?

Cheers

Hi Northy, haven't used a return spring on my luego. Made up a small bracket and bolted to floor just in front of the clutch pedal to limit pedal travel . Uses just the springs inside the clutch itself to pull pedal to rest position. Nice light clutch . I am using the luego supplied pedal assembly . Hope this helps Rusty

I found old car seats to be a useful source of springs of various sizes. Take a penknife and pliers to the scrapyard with you.

I'm with rusty nuts on this one. Just used the clutch's own spring action and knocked up a return stop which bolts to the floor.

I swiped the spring off the silicone sealant gun I got from B&Q. The one that holds the ratchet together. It was spare after sealing the ali panels

Good idea!

I've just raped mine!
